One side of the applicator is equipped with a removable lateral guidance support for straight application. The high grade stainless steel will not be affected by acid or base elements.
BAKER FILM APPLICATORS
Cylindrical film applicator with 4 application sides for applicating paint-films of 4 different pre-defined thicknesses. The Baker applicator’s are available in film width 60 mm and 80 mm and are suitable for applying a host of different products onto flat and relatively solid substrates. Since it’s made out of high-grade stainless steel, the Baker Film Applicator will not be affected by acid or base elements.
BIRD-TYPE FILM APPLICATORS, 4-SIDED
TQC Bird-type film applicator with flat edges. Four application sides for applying 4 different pre-defined thicknesses. The TQC Bird-type applicator is available in film width 50, 75 and 100mm and suitable for applying a host of different products onto flat and relatively solid substrates. The high-grade stainless steel will not be affected by acid or base elements.
We can give no guarantee of the wet thickness that will be obtained. The wet thickness is dependent upon the solids and vehicle content of the wet material as well as other factors. Film thickness deposited may vary from 40% to 80% of the actual gate clearance of the TQC Bird-type applicator.
Material:
DAIDO 440C medical grade Martensitic stainless tool steel.
Sub Zero Vacuum hardened (+1756°C to -70°C), hardness HRC 55 (through hardened*) & tempered.
Surface treatment:
polished
Overall accuracy:
± 2 µm
*Through hardening versus Case-hardening or surface hardening.
Through-hardening means the metal uniformly is hardened throughout the piece. Case- or surface (face / frame) hardening only hardens the top layer of the metal. Once the top layer is degraded excessive wear and tear will occur on the product limiting its life time and affecting accuracy.
BIRD-TYPE FILM APPLICATORS, SINGLE GAP
TQC Bird-type film applicator with one flat edge. One application side for applying 1 pre-defined thickness. The TQC Bird-type applicator single gap is available in film width 50 and 75 mm and suitable for applying a host of different products onto flat and relatively solid substrates. The high-grade stainless steel will not be affected by acid or base elements.
Some models are equipped with removable guidance plates for straight application.
